Exploring the evidence that the works of Shakespeare were written by Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford 

Richard Kennedy

Our Oxfordian community has lost another long-time player from the great stage of life – a real maverick. Richard Kennedy passed away recently at age 92 in Newport, Oregon.

Although he did not publish his Oxfordian research, he was an accomplished author with Harper and Row, publishing some 20 books of fiction, and he also wrote at least three plays, many short pieces, cartoons and made visual art. His books were anthologized and translated all over Europe, and one was made into an animated film by the CBC in Canada. At the time his books were consideredchildren’s books; however, today they would be called fantasy or fairy tales for all ages.

The next edition of the Shakespeare Oxford Newsletter will feature an expanded biography written by Caroline Bauman.
